Lyrics

  1. I’ve never been a Romeo somehow
    Ain’t fallin’ in and out of love no how
    But I’ve a hunch my moment is coming
    A honey bunch has started me humming

Chorus
Gonna get a girl
Because I ought to have a girl
Because I never had a girl
That’s why I’m gonna get a girl
Gonna get a miss for kissing
Gonna get the kiss I’m missing
Brain is in a whirl
That’s why I’m gonna get a girl
I’ve been gettin’ wise watchin’ other guys
Walking their cuties
Makin’ up my mind, gonna to go and find
One of those beauties
Can’t stop me
Gonna get a girl
Because I ought to have a girl
Because I never had a girl
That’s why I’m gonna get a girl

  1. I know a boy, a bashful boy somehow
    Ain’t had the joy of makin’ love nohow
    But I’ve a hunch his moment is coming
    A honey bunch has started him humming
